Proving once again that timeless style transcends the decades is the new Gucci Jackie Soft collection that will be the Italian house’s main bag offering for F/W14. Inspired by the original Jackie bag first launched in 1958 that quickly became a favourite of Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis (and subsequently named after her), the new collection features a reinterpreted hobo much like the one she wore back then, along with the distinct piston clasp that’s this particular style’s signature.

And because Creative Director Frida Giannini understands that modern women today like to have their cake and eat it too, the Jackie Soft collection features 5 distinct styles, from the hobo where it all started, to new additions including a roomy tote, a sassy shoulder sling, a fuss-free clutch, and last but not least for the working woman on the go: a smart briefcase.

Also featured heavily in Gucci’s upcoming F/W14 ad campaign, the muted pastel hues the bags come in are refreshing, nothing too bright or bold, just easy-to-match colours that will work with most wardrobes. Whether it’s the hobo that will cradle nicely on the side of your hips or the huge tote that’s a great work/gym bag combo, you can now view the first allotment of new arrivals that are in boutiques locally.

Prices start from SGD3460 for the Jackie Soft Hobo all the way to SGD36,160 for the large hobo in lush exotic croc. You just need to find something to fall in love with, which shouldn’t be hard given the number of different bag styles and colours it comes in. And if you need to see more, either head down to Gucci personally or head over to my Facebook page where I’ll be uploading more images.

So what have changed?

It comes with the new 20’ inch drop nylon shoulder strap. This shoulder strap can be removed easily or adjusted, the size is larger than its previous version, which in our opinion looks more modern. The color of the nylon shoulder strap is beige.

There is an unexpected thickness to the soft grain leather, which gives the bag beautiful structure while maintaining its slouchy shape.

The inner side was specially crafted in suede to act as a protective interior.
